A single/ two-player 3D beat-em-up, where two angry giraffes are inside a ring, manoeuvring around and using their necks to battle it out, fight club style.

A player takes control of a giraffe, where you are then placed in the wild plains of the African Sahara, where your objective is to find, provoke, challenge, fight, and triumph against as many other like-minded angry giraffes as possible.

When encountering a new opponent, game screen overlays a boundary, and a countdown for the match to begin. The control uses a gaming controller:

  • Left thumb-stick to move directions
  • R1/R2 to rotate view and facing direction
  • Right thumb-stick to attack, swinging the neck by making different combinations.

The core mechanic of giraffe fighting involves the swinging of the neck to attack/ defend. Each giraffe has a health gauge. Every time you swing your neck or get hit, your exhaustion causes your health to decrease. The match ends when one giraffe's health is completely depleted, causing it to lose consciousness, leaving the remaining giraffe as the winner.

Every time your giraffe wins, one of their spots turns gold – thus making notoriety to other giraffes. This in-turn attracts more aggressive opponents. As a result, it is possible to end up with a completely golden, notorious, heavyweight fighting giraffe, that struts around dominating the Sahara.
